I'm Still Here....
It's been a while since I posted. Just a short note to let you guys know I'm not gone, and I'll be picking up again soon.

There's a lot going on lately, and I just wanted to assure you I'm still around.
If you've been following the SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge, you've noticed I missed a month. For the first time in almost 2 years, I wasn't able to get out the contest. Not because I didn't want to, though.
Life hasn't really been easy on my end these last couple of weeks. About a month ago, there was the planned (and long awaited) surgery in which they fixated my 2 lower vertebrae, hoping it would solve my back problems. I spent a couple of days in the hospital and then went home to start the recovery process.
For two weeks, everything seemed to be fine. Even better... things seemed to be great. Of course, recovering from surgery is not the most fun way to pass time, but slowly and steady, I started to feel better.
Two weeks ago, the sh*t hit the fan: cerebrospinal fluid started leaking in my back. After seeing 2 different doctors who did nothing but scare the hell out of me, I was admitted to the hospital again. Not even 24 hours later, the surgeon decided to perform an emergency surgery to patch up the leak and reduce the risk on meningitis.
The surgery went fine, but the next 9 days I wasn't allowed to leave the bed... at all. On top of that, it appeared I was allergic to the antibiotics they gave me, and my blood pressure was way too low. The least I can say is that I got through those 9 days in a bit of a fuzzy state. I did have my phone with me, but - in spite of the fact that I managed to stay positive - my head was too clouded to do anything online.
I did manage to follow up on the entire Justin Sun situation, but that was about it.
Posting was just a goal I could not achieve.
But...
I was released from the hospital two days ago, and by now I'm starting to feel a bit like myself again. The clouds in my head are not entirely gone yet - I guess the painkillers are at least partly to blame for that - but I'm getting there.
I assume I'll be able to get back to posting and engaging at full force soon.
I decided not to publish the belated edition of the SteemIt Community Garden Journal Challenge for February. Instead, I'll just post the March edition in about two weeks. I bet y'all have a truckload of pics of your gardens to share by that time!
Well, that was about all I wanted to say for today. I'm gonna get some more rest and do absolutely nothing for the rest of the day. (Like I haven't rested enough these last couple of weeks, right?!)
Just wanted to let you know I'm still around, and not going anywhere either!

Scary stuff!
Glad you are on the road to recovery :)
Yeah you should see what it's like having cancer, and being on your death bed. So many jerk offs who knew, didn't even have the fucking decency to leave a comment or message. But 'Mr engagement' doesn't respond to all his comments. Neither does he give a fuck about anyone outside his circle jerks. Don't worry, you're not alone. I had more fucking hate thrown my way, and knives stuck in my back (and still do, by the real entitled children of steem), than any kind of support during that time.
I'm sorry, I wasn't aware you have cancer.
Not all, but I try.
Not true.
Not from me.
Boring and completely standard bullshit. I look forward to your 1% upvotes once per 3 months or so, that are only designed to direct traffic to your blog. #newsteem bullshit. Same as #oldsteem bullshit.
👍🏽
Thanks, Asher!
I guess there won’t be any twerking in your near future! Wishing your a speedy recovery
Hahaha, there never has been, and there never will be ;0)
Thanks!
Oh my, prayers for your speedy recovery 🙏🙏 please be safe and well 😊😊

Wow, that's scary @simplymike, I'm so sorry to hear you've been going through such a tough time!
I wish you a speedy and complete recovery, along with wishes that you be able to work in the garden without pain.
Thanks a lot, @denmarkguy
Oh my goodness @simplymike! I am glad you are finally getting through to the other side and here's hoping for a complete recovery soon!
I did miss the Garden Journal challenge but was aware of your surgery so thought that was why it didn't happen. Great to be able to have the March - long awaited for Spring one!
Take care and glad you are on the road to recovery!
Thanks, @porters.
Yeah, spring one will be great. Yesterday, I noticed that my kiwiberry (about the only plant I have in the garden at the moment) is turning green again. Joyful times :0)

Buzz on over here to the #HIVE Waitin' to hear from Ya...!?!
Purrs & Hedbonks for ya when ya get here...!!
How does it feel to be a filthy cunt, who is doing the bidding for already real life multi-millionaires, and completely bury a cancer survivor in the process and kick them in the face while they are down? Lets not let them try and get their life back in order of some type of normality, let's just destroy it the team possible way. The fake philanthropic greed way, just like all the scumbag billionaires of the real world.
Does it make you feel good, knowing that and playing the fake fucking janus-face game of "the little people" card (ilovepoorpeople lies) every time you open your stupid fucking mouth, all for your own fucking greed you cocksucking leeches. Not only that, but you even steal players away with your big fucking wallets, after others did all the hard work in finding them and then even referring them to you shithole guild to help them initially...greed wallets to make sure nobody else gets a piece of what they worked for. You multi-level thieving fucking scumbags.
This is the team possible motto. "What's ours is ours, and what yours is ours, and if it isn't we will take it from you with scumbag bully tactics".
Team shithole greed machine motherfuckers. You all care about poor people so much, that you want to enslave them to make you rich for the rest of your lives. Everything about you and all those cocksuckers you swim with is completely fake. You have ZERO fucking credibility or principles, and only fucking greed - you pathetic scamming bully cunts. Go open another 500 guilds so you can farm that economy to death as well, and then pretend that you are all victims on top for your own crimes and filthy dirt being exposed (but silenced systematically), and then constantly cry and cry in the SL server to get everything your own way with you cry baby authoritative thug mentality.
GO FUCK YOURSELF YOU WHORE and the THUGS of hive you have now aligned with, to silence anyone who gets in your way. You can now go call your thug friends to come downvote this into oblivion as well, to make sure it is hidden from public view, just like all my other comments and accounts that got totally obliterated. Its a great mix of total authoritarianism, where you can completely shut someone out of existence both on chain and on discord where you all have "special stripes" and can do as you please like the fucking thugs that you are.
I HOPE YOU ALL GET CANCER YOU FUKCING SCUMBAGS, AND FEEL THE HATE YOU DISH OUT.
